no... it's still there, just at the bottom of the page...

and apparently OffTopic.com has threads that obtain 20 pages in a day easy.

our admins block OT, and I don't read it at home... so, itsgood thing I don't have easy access for yet another forum addiction. (if that makes any sense)

true, the threads go up faster there, but its a whole diffrent population over there too.

thanks for the headsup about the FAQs on org, those were helpful Casper.

But what's up with the wheel offset?? This is from the FAQs:
What offsets do I need?
Anything between 35mm-40mm should fit fine.

Why does Acura's have to be so high, but Max's get away with a low one?? No smart ass remarks Casper... unless you really know the answer. :P

anyone else with a guess? They're both FWD cars, I figured the offsets would need to be similar.

well, my bro in law works for nissan HQ, and he introduced me to some of his co-worker buddies last weekend. One of them just called me out of the blue a few minuets ago and invited me to tag along.

the guy who invited me has a 350Z track model. We were gonna run last week, but never got the time.

I don't think that'll be the case this week.

weird...so im riding home, windows down, music up in traffic when this asian chick in a charcoal grey IS300 rolls down her window and says hey I got a question for you...

I say sup?

she says what kind of suspension is that?

I'm thinking suspension? Why would some random chick ask me about suspension?

I tell her its zeal, but she doesn't recognize that, then I say endless and shes like ohh yeah, I know them, nice setup. Then she goes on to say where did you get it from, autocarparts.com? (which I did) I'm like whoah, this chick knows her shit.

by this time, I was holding up traffic as I had about 15 car spaces in front of me while she was right behind the person in her lane. So I waved and drove off cause the folks behind me were getting pissed.

I've gotten asked about rims a few times, but never about suspension, from a girl, in rush hour traffic.

Wonder if I'll run into her again.

whore status really isn't measured by the total number of posts you have, but rather the number of posts per day you have.

chrisbpickering - 1185 (3.60 posts per day)

whore status is determined by how well you can handle an extreme rate of simultaneous posting... haha

tekmode on the nissanforum had almost 20 posts per day AND he's on other forums at the same time... amazing.

I'm about to obtain temporary whore status due to the fact that nissanforums is down for the moment... grr

(awaiting smart a$$ remark from danny )

hahaha... i guess... I can thankfully say that there are only two cases of rice on my car and one's not even ON the car.

One: I bought altezzas but only to trade them for the tails I have. They were shipped straight to the dude, so I never touched them. But it was my cc on the transaction.

Two: Foot well neons... don't ask why... it's just kinda fun. oh well.

I guess you're right... gotta have a little from time to time
